Episode 327: The Snowtown Murders
Between 1992 and 1999, four men in South Australia murdered 12 people - most of whom were friends or family members. In May 1999, investigators were working on a missing persons investigation when they discovered barrels hidden in an old bank vault in Snowtown, South Australia. The remains of 8 people were found inside the barrels, and when they learned the extent of the crimes that had been committed, the “bodies in barrels” murders became known one of Australia’s most horrific cases.
